1t was noon tyforc the funeral
procession started. The good moth
er and faithful wife, hand in hand,
followed the pail bearers from the
house, and then entered coach.
The homes of Fishcher, Parsons and
Engel were also the scenes of demon
STATIONS of grief and vast multitudcs
were assembled at each of those
places to attest their sympathy.
Louis Llngg's body was at the Engcl
home. The caskets in the hearses
were buried beneath floral offerings
indeed, there was not room for
them all. The mighty procession
slowly wended its way towards the
railroad depot, whence as many as
could took the cars for the Wald-
helm cemetery.
The people wore crimson insignia,
and the caskets were draped with
red flags. The trades unions alone
occupied an hour in passing a given
point. Three hundred young girls
wearing red sashes were among the
mournels, The Marseillaise was
played, and as the hearse containing
the remains of Parsons drew near, at
the forming of the procession, the
plalntlye strains of "Annie Laurie, )"
Parsons last song, deeply affected
the people.
To detail all of the memorable
event is impossible in the limited
space of the ADVOCATE. Let it
suffice to say that the brave men
were honored in death as no man
ever before in Chicago.
The remains were placed in a vault
at Waldheim to await final burial in
some appropriate spot.

Solemn Tribute TO the Martyred
Heroes of Chicago.

hNiVN' W S"iNaSos
The men of Boston were prompt
to express their opinion on the judi
cial murder perpetrated in Chicago.
On the evening of Black Friday New
Era Hall was crowded with working
men and women of all shades of po-
litical faith. The hall was appropri-
ately draped in mourning, with mot
toes and inscriptions upon the walls.
The chairman, }. W. Badger, could
hardly control his emotion as he
opened the meeting, but regaining
his composure he paid an eloquent
tribute to the martyrs. DR.. James
Waldock, Carl Friede, Geo. Il. Nc
Neil and others, made speeches.
Space unfortunately forbids their re-
production, but We cannot omit at
least a synopsis of one or two
of them. DIR. Waldock said
"MEN, BRETHREN, SIsTERs-l am of
two minds as stand before you to-day
When think of the cruel, infamous
wrong done to those seven men of Chi
cago and to us who believe them to have
been unjustly, illegally condemned, and
to our country for which they have
given their lives, | am ready to wish that
there might come upon the miscreants
who did the hateful deed, and upon their
nstigators and abettors, all the horrors
of that hell which they seek to bring up
on our country.
"But when think again of poor, weak,
erring man, out of what long perverted
blood and brain he is made up, say to
myself; what is the use; who art thou
that thou shouldest judge thy fellows
They could not, perchance, do other
wise; they were born so. Shall we de-
nounce them for their evil inheritance
We must, rather, pity the evil-doers,
even if we despise and hate their deeds.
"Aye, verify, not the men who are
gone TO death upon the scaifold or to the
living tomb of the dungeon are to be
pitied, but they who have been able, out

of their ill-doing, as they will have it:
MAY the remembrance of their evil
deed never leave them while they live.
May it pierce deeper and yet deeper into
the hateful substance of their policy,
passion, fear swayed hearts till they re-
pent in saclscloth and ashes before the
law they have perverted, the right they
profaned with perjured hands-or perish
from off the face of the earth they and
their noxious, venomous blood, down to
an extinguished generation. And

in honor OF the heroes.
At the various branch meetings
of the Socialistic Labor Party Sun

The Progressive international Ci-

The Organized WOrkmen Condemn
the Murder.

viz AhubNVAs
The judicial committee of the
Rhode Island Central Labor Union
called an Indignation meeting last
Sunday in view Of the Chicago crime.
When the people came to the hall
that was engaged, the proprietor
told them a mistake had been made
the estate of Rhode Island" had
hired the hall for the Emmett Guards.
This poor police trick failed, how
ever, for the members Of the Mason's
Union Immediately offered their hall,
buta few steps away, and directly
after the doors were opened the
place was crowded to it's fullest
capacity, and hundreds were unable
to get in. Harry G. Vrooman, ed
itor of The People,, Mrs. Ellen
Bowles, and Holmes Merden were
the speakers, and their words found
ready response with the audience.
Colporter Brand was on hand with
an armful of copies Of the Speeches
of the Condemned" and sold every
one of them.

THOUSANDS MOURNING.
Colossal Demonstration at the Funeral
of the Martyrs.
The Dead Speak Louder Than The
Living.
10000 WOrkmen in Line.

The capitalists and their thugs
were undeceived last Sunday. They
imagined they had cowed the work
ing people by numbering five of their
number and imprisoning three more.
But never in the history of Chicago
was there such great gathering of
of people as assembled to pay the last
honors to their martyred dead. The
committees having the details in
charge expected about 10000, but
they had not estimated the people at
their proper worth, for at least l50,-
600 participated in the last sad rites
and mingled their tears with those
Of the wronged families robbed of
their noblest ones.
AT THE HOME OF SPIES.
Before the casket containing the
mortal remains of August Spies
was closed, and after the friends
had gazed for the last time upon the
dead hero, Captain Black, the faith
full counsel, madea memorial speech.
With deep feeling he spoke of the
self-sacrilice and deep convictions of
the deceased.
1.-The man whose lifele body lies be-
fore us, said he, gave his life for hui
manity. Can we give him greater
praise-does he need more honorf The
man who died courageously for those
whom he had never seen nor knew,

his death would help to better their con.
dition-his name cannot be exalted toe

In order to justify their crime, the
authorities have been inyenting all
sorts of stories of alleged threats and
rlotous intentions on the part of the
friends of the condemned, and the
capitalist press published them
broadcast through the land. Many
people have no other knowledge of
the real circumstances connected
with the tragedy from the time of
the murderous attack of the police
under command Of Inspector Bon
field upon the lIaymarket meeting
to the final murder of the four brave
men thar that furnished them by
the corrupt dress. The editors of
the thousands of country papers
being as ignorant of the facts as thor
readers; they published what was
sent them by the servants of the
great and corrupt news agencies, or
copied their reports from the metro
politan papers who form the links of
the Associated Press chain. "Truth
travels with leaden HEELS" but Truth
will conquer at last; and then, woe
to the corruptionists.
The studied brutality and cruelty
of the press towards the relatives and
friends of the victims of class hatred
was simply fiendish, and is calculated
to implant in the breasts of those
who know them an everlasting feel
ing of loathing for the miserable
commercialists to whom nothing is
too sacred for traffic.
"Society is saved"-for WHAT
The laborers continue their toll,
while their masters take the sub
stance. The daily treadmill of the
wage-slave never ceases its clatter,
while the owners Of the toilers COM
placently pocket the spoils and reyel
in the wealth their hands are not
soiled to create. But there will be
no rest. The agitation for justice to
Labor will continue, and will grow
from year to year till the people who
now toll in patient ignorance will
feel the chatting Of their chains.
The greatest enemy of Labor, ignor-
ance, must be vanquished, and will
be; and the murder of these men,
and of others who will follow them,
will only serve to arouse the public
conscience. Force is a weak argu-
ment against Reason, though 1t may
slay the reasoners. The people have
heard the voice of the slayer; they
have seen the blood of his victims.
Let them remember.

bargain obtainable in the city. The So

The Gait is run exclusively in the inter

a reasonable rent-charge only, a rigor-

The Veto.

All the sound and reliable DEM
ocratic papers endorse the Presi-
dents veto of the "pauper pension
bill" Very few Republican jour
mails of responsibility or influence
but what do likewise. Those that
find fault are narrow minded par
tisan journals. The Cleveland
Plain Dealer calls it a righteous
veto." The Cincinnati Times Star,
Republican, "says his act will be
approved by thoughtful men of all
parties,"' and that the bill was an
insult to- honest soldiers and an
outrage on the government" The
Buffalo Express, Providence Jour
nal, Philadelphia North american,
Rutland, VT, Herald, Troy, N. Y,
Times, Poughkeepsie Eagle, st. Paul
Pioneer Press, Philadelphia Record,
Boston Post, st. Louis Republican.
Boston Herald, Pittsburg Chromi.
Gle and the Pittsburg Commercial
Gazette, all staunch Republican
leading journals and known 70,
their unainching support of their
party, denounced the bill and com
mend the veto of the President
The attempt, therefore, of a few
"small fry. partisan papers to
make political capital out of the
veto, by denouncing the President
will fall very fiat. The bill was a
gigantic fraud under the guise of g
patriotic purpose-to veto it was a
courageous act and public senti'
ment will sustain the Presidents
action, however much political
demagogues may clamor Owe it.
